We had never attended a performance before. Today, we watched Snow White in the theater, and it was fantastic. Excellent dancers. Beautiful settings and costumes. Without a doubt, we'll suggest it and return.

For my kid, the Cincinnati Ballet Summer Intensive was a life-changing event. It was certainly a summer to remember, with world-class educators and lifelong connections. She felt extremely privileged to be one of the first dancers to use the studios because the new building is simply lovely.
